Supporters of the procedure, however, filed suit before the Inter-American Human Rights Court. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\t\u201cThe mere existence of a bias in favor of the legalization of abortion\u201d on the part of three judges \u201craises questions about their impartiality and good faith\u201d the group added.<\/p>\n<p>\tWhat the court decides \u201cwill have implications for the integrity of the
